My original intention was to do continue the Alphabetical Pleasures List I started last week, but the lovely and talented Christine tagged me for a meme, so that’s what you’ll get instead. Sorry it’s late but my Thursday didn’t quite work out as originally planned.
Here are the rules according to whomever likes to makeup rules (which isn’t me – I’m copying these verbatim):
-
Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves. (blah, blah blah)
-
People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. (Duh.)
-
At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight (five for me) people to get tagged and list their names. (All’s fair in Lurv and bloggin’)
-
Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog. (Duh, again)
Part One:
-
I’m really fussy about handwriting, from the actual script to the ink colour to the paper. I loathe using ordinary black or blue ink, so if I can get away with it, I’ll happily write all notes in my current favourites: pink, turquoise or purple.
-
I have little hands and feet, so I get away with kid sized mittens and fun socks. Right now I don’t own any fun socks, which tells you the state of way too many things.
-
I am in love with my new purple converse low tops. I could build a whole wardrobe around them.
-
By the time I reach Friday, I’m desperately wanting my couch, my cats, and my man. I have been known to go on movie benders.
-
I get claustraphobic at Costco. Why? Small girl + high shelves + too many people + bad buggy drivers = Cin’s version of hell.
-
I have a love/hate relationship with clothes. There aren’t many designers out there who are kind to latino curves, and I’m not interested in placing my goods on display, you know what I mean? So often I go through the pain of trying lots on, getting discouraged, and going home with nothing.
-
I google myself every once in a while, just to see what’s out there.
-
I can’t stand rough cardboard drink trays. They are the equivalent of nails down a chalkboard for me, and I have been known to break out from it. Please don’t analyze that!
Part Two

Andrea at Under A Blue Moon

Finn at Finn’s Space

Links to other Thursday Thirteens!
1. (leave your link in comments, I’ll add you here!)
Get the Thursday Thirteen code here!
The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!
Intersting list…
Happy late TT!
Hello: I’m so thrilled that you participated. I wish I had small feet, although I’m 5 feet tall I have size 7 1/2 feet (my feet grew 1/2 inch from pregnancy). I have a stationary collection that began when I visit Japan in the early 90s. I have a thing for neat paper and fancy pens too. Thanks for playing and I look forward to reading the rest of your alphabetical pleasure list next week. Have a great weekend, XINE
